"A Brush With a Woman " Exhibition Collection 2016

"Dog Tired"

Sleeping Beardie

59 x 78 cms

£620

This painting is of course my Bailey, who was sleeping but opened his eyes as soon as he felt me near him with my camera. I think the title "Dog Tired" really does share the feeling of the moment captured in this painting.

I adore Beardies. Their characters are so wonderful. They are loving, loyal and amazingly great companions. I have this piece destined for our own cottage unless someone falls in love with it at my exhibition. The new owner would have to love it as much as me, because of the affection and loving brushwork that has gone into it. Not just a painting. But an emotional connection between owner and pet. A feeling each time that you look at the painting you feel. A softness. Love shared via art.

The Artist Magazine : Book Review

Jean Haines' Atmospheric Watercolours

"The book is nothing less than a paean to the wet in wet technique. If that's your thing, prepare to be amazed. Jean Haines credits Jean Louis Morelle, and in many ways this book is the sequel to Morelle's remarkable, but very technical work, showing the wealth of creative possibilities the technique offers. A lot of the images are barely recognisable and yet you instinctively know what they are. I wish I knew how, because this is impressionism taken to its logical conclusion and reminiscent of some of the later work by JMW Turner. You will have to take it from me that "First signs of a face appearing magically from a first wash of watercolour" is pure alchemy. This is an extraordinary book."

"Amazing Ways With Watercolour:" Fastest Selling DVD!

"Amazing Ways With Watercolour" from Town House Films is the fastest selling DVD with the company to date! Record breaking pre-orders for this much awaited film saw requests for copies flooding in from all over the world. A wonderful introduction into working with watercolour minus the use of a preliminary sketch this DVD removes the fear, stress or pressure from worry about how to use watercolour. Instead the focus is on having fun, enjoying vibrant colour combinations and allowing the medium to create the subjects with just a little help from the artist. A really exciting new DVD to own. Whilst the DVD sold out in the first few months since its' release due to popularity it is now in stock and available directly from Town House Films.
